New iPhone App “Kick to Pick” Lets Babies Choose Own Name

Parents can now enlist the help of their unborn child when picking their baby names, thanks to a brand new iPhone app called Kick to Pick.

How does it work?

The app, which is available for iPhones and iPod Touches, randomly generates thousands of baby names whilst monitoring a baby's movements to sense any signs of enthusiasm there may be. Any kick detected by the program will then stop the generator at the baby's chosen name, ready for the parents to accept their child's choice or dismiss the name and start their search again.

Featuring a cute baby monitor design and costing just £0.59 to download, the Kick to Pick app adds a whole new dimension to naming a child. Not only does it provide a great source of inspiration but plenty of fun too, making it perfect for baby showers, family gatherings or a gift for expecting parents.

Those using the Kick to Pick app can narrow their search either by gender or by creating a list of favorites to choose from.

"The idea for Kick to Pick came from a discussion about baby's choices and the fact they had no influence over the name they go onto keep for the rest of their lives,” says Nathan Parks, creator of the Kick to Pick app.
